Hi all!
I had my band done Feb 2012 and lost 15kg, but in the last 12 months my weight has been yoyo-ing like crazy and I've really been struggling to keep it off. I was really hoping that the band hadn't failed me but just last week I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries which the Dr said would have been a major factor in my weight re-gain (I gained another 10kg but so far have lost the other 5kg again, thank god!)
So with the added stress of not knowing yet if my partner and I can have children, I've been struggling again with my will power (emotional eater...) The medication my Dr would like to trial me on can help with weight loss and I know that that alone can help with the symptoms of polycystic ovaries.
Anyway, I was thinking surely I'm not the only one out there going through this (or similar) and I would really love to hear some success stories to give me some faith!!
